Who's actually wearing Missoni for Target?

I had a thought the other day as I wore my purple chevron-striped Missoni for Target scarf to work: who's actually wearing this stuff? Most of the goods sold out in the first day, yet I haven't seen it worn by any "real" people (besides myself) except for two instances: this cute minidress (shown) on A) a 20-something blonde woman at the San Francisco airport, and B) on fellow blogger Lemondrop Marie, who owns not only this dress but several other Missoni pieces. But other than that, nothing. You'd think you'd spot someone at the mall or the grocery store or ANYWHERE sporting the iconic zig-zag pattern. What about you, dear readers? Have you seen any Missoni out there in the wild?

I have two - the blue one shown, as well as the verticle zig zag stripe sleeveless tunic. I have worn each of them at least 3 times. But you are so correct - I haven't seen any others worn out there either! Maybe they are in high schools, college campus' and or only worn at home! Interesting post!

I wear it a lot, the other weekend with keds sneakers to chase the baby around! I worry I will see so many others wearing it that I will feel silly, but so far not the case. Good question and thanks for the mention, I feel so fashion forward :)

I have not seen another real person in Missoni, yet. I wore my brown zig-zag scarf at my local OC mall. It was a conversation starter...sales associates and other shoppers shared their Missoni stories, very interesting. I was lucky enough to receive all my items from restocking at Target. Thanks for a great post :)

I'm quite small so I fit in the largest size of the girls' flower coat, and I'm wearing it in Edinburgh, Scotland - I have women asking me all the time where they can get one and I almost feel bad telling them there's no way! I adore it...

I was looking at some of the "real' Missoni scarves in Saks the other day and wondered about the people who are paying the big bucks for these. Do you think other people looking at them and thinking "Oh, there's one of the scarves from Target".....?
